Do Blondes Really Have More Fun?

Apparently so. And if you happen to blonde and Catholic, watch out.

Blonde Preschooler, eyeballing her fair-haired mom and sister: Poor Daddy. He’s the only one who has blackish-brownish hair.

Brief pause.

Same Blonde Preschooler: …and he’s not Catholic.

    As a blonde and a Catholic, I’m in trouble!! Your kids are adorable :)

Hi, I’m Kate

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood  and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

 

“She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.”

―Flannery O'Connor
